Trenton

True story once comforted me, too
And even though I'm the one coming back here again
You could also say I am, in fact, departing

Funny, I was just thinking of
Funny, I was just thinking of where
Of where resentment could live
Perhaps in scattered warehouses
Is there space for all these broken promises?

And now, we've come to the river
Yet, who could ever miss the bridge?
It says, "Trenton makes, the world takes"

For now, there is no wisdom after all
What comes to mind is on a moving train
(No bitterness, bitterness
No, bitterness doesn't tend to change)
It made me think of you, and I do every day
Only not quite the way that I used to
(No bitterness, bitterness
No, bitterness doesn't tend to change)

I wanted my own picture to hang
At the top of the gallery
So much that there was nowhere close to intention
Now, amongst strangers, am I here?
Am I a part of the collective?

Funny, I was just thinking of
Funny, I was just thinking of how hard
How hard the frightened grip
The job of the next one's to take the pain
The job of the next one's to take the pain
I was also so convinced

For now, there is no wisdom after all
What comes to mind is on a moving train
(No bitterness, bitterness
No, bitterness doesn't tend to change)
Still, it made me think of you, and I do every day
Only not quite the way that I used to
(No bitterness, bitterness
No, bitterness doesn't tend to change)

For now, there is no wisdom after all
What comes to mind is on a moving train
(No bitterness, bitterness
No, bitterness doesn't tend to change)
Still, it made me think of you, and I do every day
Only not quite the way you want me to
Not how I used to
(No bitterness, bitterness
No, bitterness doesn't tend to change)

Now (No, bitterness doesn't tend to change)
Passing the river
My mind was elsewhere, I missed the bridge
It said, "Trenton makes, the world takes"
